Yeah, I've heard this before too.
Which, of course, doesn't make any sense.
If people "love the sound" why only use them for only one or two songs.

A lot of people look upon 12-strings as a one-trick-pony.
I think 12-strings (acoustic or electric) are a lot more versatile than people give them credit for.

There's another thread here about popular songs with 12's in them.
That's a lot of songs.

12's work with blues, folk, jazz, bluegrass, anything.
